I somehow feel that 30 FPS on PC is worse than console. Haven't tried it on a normal TV using my PC though. I don't know if that is any different.

30fps on PC sucks. PC's really dont seem to like 30fps and always look worse than on console. I did find a way to get a 'console style' 30fps on PC though, and it works with most games. Turn Vsync off ingame, turn on 'Adaptive half rate vsync' in Nvidia control panel, and the important part - run afterburner and make sure you limit the framerate on Rivatuna to 31fps, it has to be 31.
I dont know why that works exactly, but it does, and it produces a console looking 'smooth' 30fps.

Must be annoying to turn this on and off all the time?

The main reason why 30fps can look acceptable is motion blur. Some kinds of motion blur are ok and some kinds are garbage but all of them will make 30fps seem somewhat smoother.
So if you're on PC and are playing at 30fps for whatever reason try turning on motion blur and then give yourself a few minutes of gameplay to get used to it.

Blur motion where? Does every game have this option?
*Raises hand*
Been gaming in 4k for about two years, with my PC hooked up to my Samsung KS8000. I have a 1080ti that reaches 4k 60fps in most games at semi-max settings. With the newest visual powerhouses I can usually just lower shadows to medium or something to get there. Strangely enough the only game that I had to lower to 1080p has been What Remains of Edith Finch. I do however play most fast-paced FPS games on my 1440p 144hz monitor since I love that flow. As a side-note Mortal Kombat 11 looks glorious in 4k hdr. Another game to check out in 4k is Outlast 2, looks absolutely amazing.
With a 1070 you should be able to run most games at 4k 30 fps if you can stomach that.

No, only some games have the option. I've never heard of an option to force motion blur in any game.
Usually people are trying to disable it.

But i thought console games were holding back PC gaming?
I suppose it is if you have a dual 2080ti and cant afford a 4k monitor with higher than 60 fps.
If your a poor pc gamer trying to play on a 4k tv, lock your frame rate to 30 and try with a controller .. mouse lag at 30 fps is a killer.
